Man guilty of conspiracy
PA Dunedin A Dunedin man was found guilty on Monday by a jury of conspiracy to cover up events surrounding the death of a young Thames woman last September. Graham Keith Renwick, aged 28, had denied that with three females and two males he conspired to obstruct the course of justice between September 11 and 17 by trying to conceal a crime, the culpable homicide of Anne Linda Bloor, aged 19. The body of Miss Bloor was found in Otago Harbour on September 13, the morning after she had disappeared from a crib at Harington Point near
Dunedin where she had gone with Renwick the previous evening. The five other persons were also present. Crown evidence was that the three other females beat up Miss Bloor and pushed her into the harbour. Called as Crown witnesses, they said they had already been dealt with on charges of assaulting her, as well as on a charge of conspiring with Renwick and the two males to cover up the fact that she had died. The jury reached its verdict hours after Mr Justice Williamson summed up yesterday. Renwick will be sentenced on March 10.
